Invisible Problem

By looking at me/ do you see epilepsy/ or just a young man just trying to do what's best for me/ do you see the nights of shaking in my sleep/ do you feel the pain of biting my tongue deep/ I feel to be in a different world sometimes/ because y'all say I had a seizure/ and I say y'all out of your minds/ then reality hits/ like a ton of bricks/ I'm in that loopy state/ where I don't know if I exist/ have you ever came to/ not knowing who was around you/ a bunch of eyeballs looking down/ astonished how they found you/ shaking and moaning all around/ now the seizure thoughts hound you/ we all look in the mirror sometime during the day/ just know God made that special person/ in their own special way/ Invisible problems/ shhh/ that's everyone alive/ one more thing that sucks is/ I CAN'T DRIVE
